Unique experience than that of Andy Goldsworthy, internationally recognized artist, who imagines a project combining contemporary art and safeguarding rural heritage on the protected territory of the Geopark of Haute-Provence, around Digne les Bains.
“Whatever I undertake, I try to understand not only the stone or the leaf but this flow of life, death, decay, energy present in the material. A river is the very expression of flow, connection and movement and I feel the need to find the river in a tree, in a stone. I think that here this sculpture is an attempt to find the flow, the water, in the stone. It is a line of energy, movement and flow.”
Andy Goldsworthy
From Digne les Bains take the D900a to the village of Esclangon (see Sentinel of the Bès Valley). In Esclangon take the road that winds between the houses and park on the flat ground just before the start of the rocky track. About 25 minutes Continue on foot on the track for about 500 m. The path to the pass starts to the right of the track above the embankment a few meters before the stream near a landslide area (the path is not easy to find, do not hesitate to climb the embankment). The single path climbs steeply through the Aiguebelle forest to the pass. Go down 100 m on the other side and turn left to the shelter.
